When determining custody of a child, Arizona courts will determine "the best interests of the child". In some cases, this includes the prior relationship between the child and their grandparents.

Considering the grandparent's motivation for seeking access and the motivation of the parents to prevent such access, the court's main priority is to do what is best for the children. There are many types of grandparent visitation arrangements that can be made. It may not be every weekend, but most agreements provide for some sort of regular contact.

Grandparent Custody

In some cases, grandparents seek outright child custody. Child custody is given to grandparents only when the court finds that neither parent is fit to take care of the children in question. These arrangements are most common in cases involving a history of domestic violence, drug abuse or criminal records.
